Thread Name: Dainty Davey: What's a curly pow?
Subject: Lyr Add: DAINTY DAVEY (Robert Burns)^^^
There is a very beautiful non-bawdy version of the song, by Burns, for those of you with tender sensibilities. It does not mention the afore-queried pow- the line is "Meet me on the Warlock Knowe" (no association with wicca)
Burns also used this melody for the "Gairdner wi' his Paidle"

This version is in the DT - (click)
